Re: Is Clinton as pushy as we think?

[ QUOTE ] Oh, I can name you many men who, their politics aside, strike me as likable: McCain, Bill Clinton, John Edwards, even cranky old Bob Dole. [/ QUOTE ] McCain is likeable?? [/ QUOTE ] and Madeleine Albright isn't? I do agree with the point of the OP, though. I disagree with ton of Clinton's ideas, but I still cringe every time somebody calls her "Shrillary." |

Hillary impresses me as being pushier than the other women in politics whom you mentioned.

I never viewed her as being "pushy" but that's probably a good quality to have in running an administration.

Re: Is Clinton as pushy as we think?
When I was 9 I realized prime ministers could be men. I think it is about time you people get a female president, though I'm not saying it should be Clinton. Politics is politics and when you disagree with the message the gender of the candidate is of no concern. I am however saying that for an outsider it does seem you like your country has an enormous gender inequality problem. |

Re: Is Clinton as pushy as we think?
Hillary Clinton is shrill...she sounds like my ex-mother-in-law, only more nagging.
Condi Rice doesn't strike me as cold, and neither does Nanci Pelosi. Hillary Clinton's problem is not that she's a woman...it's that she's Hillary Clinton. |

Chance that a woman is lying to you or trying to manipulate you = A
Chance that a politician is lying to you or trying to manipulate you = B A+B > B |
